Ciutat Park, Forte de la Reina and Tarragona Cathedral

Set off to explore this 10.8-km circular route in Tarragona, Spain, south of Barcelona. Generally considered a moderate walk, it takes an average of 2 hours 30 minutes to complete. This route is ideal for leisurely walks and you’re unlikely to come across many other people on the trails. A lovely walk through the city of Tarragona, past beaches, castles and archaeological sites. Every step will take you back in time and past the beautiful buildings that still stand today. The route begins in the city park, passes through the early Christian necropolis and follows the River Francoli, skirts the harbour, follows the Paseo Marítimo de Rafael Casanova, and passes by the forts of La Reina and Sant Jordi. It continues to the Roman amphitheatre, enters the beautiful Rambla before circling the old town centre, passing by other Roman and Christian structures, amongst many others.
